title: 9-[3-(Carbazol-9-yl)-5-methyl-phen-yl]carbazole.
abstract: The title compound, C31H22N2, crystallizes with two symmetry-independent mol-ecules in the asymmetric unit. The mol-ecules have slightly different conformations, the dihedral angles between the central phenyl ring and the carbazolyl groups being 56.29 (4) and 59.57 (4)° in one mol-ecule and 48.71 (4) and 65.47 (4)° in the other. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by weak C-H⋯π and π-π [centroid-centroid distances = 3.7698 (10), 3.8292 (9), 3.9429 (10) and 3.9431 (10) Å].
